Top SchoolVu Nguyen is a Staff Software Engineer with 10 years of experience building rich, dynamic web UIs and scalable front-end platforms for major enterprises. Currently at Amplitude and holding senior engineering roles at Walmart Global Tech, he has driven front-end architecture, evangelized GraphQL, and led cross-team efforts to modernize ad delivery on high-traffic sites. His background spans full-stack JavaScript, React, Node, and legacy migrations, with hands-on operational experience using Ansible, Jenkins, and server-to-server ad systems. Vu pairs technical depth with mentorship—running learning sessions and promoting front-end best practices to lift team skill levels.
